![Hot Tub Randomly Trips The GFCI Breaker [ STEP by STEP ]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/RQr6TOhX1e4/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm new to the spa repair business and I really enjoy watching your videos, you make it very easy to understand. I'm learning a lot from you!
Thank you very much!

Should think about becoming a member of the channel. Videos you won't see on UA-cam and more to come.
Watch our videos on hot tub tripping the breaker
Another good video 👍 haven’t seen many that showcase the plumbing around how blowers are installed.
Where would you start with a pump that the customer said the jets weren’t as strong as they once were and then the pump stopped working. No leaks no tripping out. Would you start with checking the capacitor? Thanks
It's the filter, something in the impeller, or the "flap" broke off the bottom of the filter canister. If the pump stopped working, most likely it burnt out because of the lack of flow. Test the capacitor and volts.
@@VIPPoolsandSpas that makes sense to me! Thanks for taking the time 👍
@@exploringbc431 pumps just don't slow down. Let me know what you find.
M y healthy living 8.5 will run for about 15-20 and then trip breaker, any suggestions?
We have a few videos on why a hot tub might trip a breaker. Look in our playlist for these videos. One of them may help you out.

There's a few videos on our channel about a hot tub tripping the breaker. Check some of those out and follow the instructions and you'll find your problem.
what component would suspect is wrong if it takes a few days to trip the breaker.
Can't just pick one component. Could be an element, capacitor on the circuit board or pump, stuck relay, or a water drip from the back of a jet dripping on the right spot on a pump motor. Maybe a faulty check valve letting water in to the ozone/UV or...........Blower. OR. Just a weak GFCI Breaker.
@@VIPPoolsandSpas Thank you for your quick response, it is appreciated and I will discuss this with the spa repair company I am working with.
Does spa technicians utilize any test equipment to attempt to find these type of intermittent issues or do they just shotgun the solutions by isolating one system at a time to attempt to catch the problem.
So far the electrician blames the spa and the spa technician blames the electrician (breaker). I do not believe the spa repair company I am using uses any test equipment (maybe a multimeter).
Wish me luck in getting this solved.
@@automatedintegratedsolutio5218 I find both a spa tech and an electrician could be wrong. Seen both. My sons an electrician and I do ask him to look at things if I cant figure it out. I find if a breaker trips right a way and it was just installed by an electrician, the breaker was installed wrong, wrong wire size or breaker size. All those 3 could trip a breaker over time because it heats up or puts strain on the breaker.

We have a few videos on this topic and I'm sure one of them will help.
